I am the Cardinal SinsSay hello everyone to my siblings of sin
Each sister housing a Capital Vice within.
The classification of objectionable flaw
Seven Demons who'll invite you to Satan's Door.
Meet Gula, Miss Glutonny, she'll swallow you whole
greedily indulge in the desires of your soul.
Temptation will drive you to gladly take her hand
and she will lead you away from the promised land.
Fornicatio, her desires and lustful needs
lechery and devotion to sexual greed
Ferral dark passions devored the pure in her mind
A soul overpowered by a love unrefined.
Avaritia, like Lust and Gula at best
denotes greed herself, another sin of excess.
She'll betray you, trick you, pursue her rapacious needs
simply steal from your soul among other misdeeds.
Invidia, Miss envy, has bitter resent
desires that of others to a dramatic extent
Her envious heart craves what she does not possess
A jealous soul a little more than obsessed.
Then there's Socordia, Miss Sloth, pure laziness
or the failure to use the gifts o
SHE'S THE GIRL ...She's the girl that sits in the corner biting back her distress,
hoping for some cashmere care, a smile to end her mess,
but the shadows creep inward and the darkness she can't fight,
so with the ink of what remains unspoken, she writes.
She stares ahead, into eyes that don't notice her tears
and the emotion that reduces her to an unknown smear,
she swallows hard the plaintive cries from making their escape,
trying to hold together, inside they stay and distort her shape.
Another tear slips free and another, moments of peace are few,
she hears her heartbeat ricochet off Silence, there's no rescue
from the voices that crowd her sanity, extinguishing her spark
with a drought of past pain she relinquishes to the Dark.
Her thoughts are all she owns and her infinite soul,
in this uncertain life they alone remain in her control,
closing her eyes a world of imagination is her defense
from reality, dissolving her away from Life's lonely expense.

Can You Hear The Piper?I am the piper of lost souls,
Playing away my sorrows.
As I play they gather around me,
Looking for guidance and love,
Which I gladly trade for company.
They sing along,
With my heartfelt song,
The cries of the dead rising strong,
They sing of chaos without name,
A mortals' sin brings about much pain.
Their voices carry into the night,
Sailing on like birds of flight.
A beacon bright to those deceased,
They flock to me like sheep,
A moth to the blazing heat.
I call them here with my tune,
Underneath this starlit sky,
The passing sailor hears their cry,
I am beckoning all to my sight,
Gathering my bounty, for tonight.
HospitalI can freely walk the halls of white walls,
Though I'd rather frequent the colors of my school.
I'm not as insane as the rest of them;
They are kept in white rooms with white sheets
And a small photo album to remember home.
I'm a passer-by, a spy amongst them,
The one people whisper, "Why's she here?"
I can question the ones I sit with.
The girls, all sat at one table,
And the boys at another.
The girls are a mixed bag of broken and defiant,
But my eyes lock upon the tall boy with empty eyes.
He belongs here.
It's obvious he belongs here.
I can play along with their lessons,
And I can swallow the reverend's words.
I guess spirituality has a place in all humans,
If they find it so important for the lost ones.
The food is divine, a restaurant bag.
And everyone surprisingly eats.
Some of them go back to their rooms.
I wonder who will come back for them.:thumb208853027:
